The hotel's location near the seafront and central area is a positive aspect. However, the small rooms for families with babies could be a downside affecting future bookings. The service provided was quite exceptional, balancing efficiency and friendliness. The dining experience was a mix of very tasty meals and some issues with high prices and self-service. Overall, good value for money with some room for improvement.

I found the hotel to be quite outdated and pricey for what it offered. The bed was comfortable and the cleanliness was satisfactory, but the decor needs improvement. The location was great for exploring Brighton, with easy access to the shops, but the noise outside was a downside. The dining experience had good buffet choices but could use improvement in service efficiency. The staff was pleasant and helpful, making the stay enjoyable overall.

My stay at this hotel was a complete letdown. The rooms were a disaster - too warm, no control over temperature, and the staff were beyond awful, refusing to address any complaints and even charging exorbitantly for basic amenities like breakfast. It was a downgrade in every sense compared to other more affordable and significantly better options.
